Abstract

For the first time, data on the mercury content and its forms in the ferromanganese and ferruginous formations of the Chaun Bay (East Siberian Sea) were obtained. According to the geochemical classification, the studied formations belong to diagenetic. The mercury content ranges from 8 to 26 µg/kg, which is two to five times lower than the bulk content in the Upper continental crust. The isomorphic (mineral) form of mercury is predominant in ferromanganese and ferruginous formations.
